ACADEMIC
SUPPORT
UPC offers a range of academic support to assist students to successfully complete their studies.
Extra English support – The College provides English support for VET students with English difficulties. Depending on the level of demand, there are 4 options:
- Face-to-face – Special English coaching will be provided to individuals or group of students to overcome specific English skills such as taking notes, writing academic reports, special vocabularies for particular subjects, etc.
- Extra English study – If your English difficulty is minor, you can join a UPC English class at your spare time to improve your English proficiency, and it is free of charge.
- Attending an English class – If your English difficulty is significant, your VET study should be suspended and you should attend a full-time English class until you reach a satisfactory English level. You will only pay half the normal English course fee.
- Bi-lingual classes (Australian domestic students only) – The College provides bi-lingual classes to newly arrived local students through bi-lingual trainers/assessors or interpreters. Current bi-lingual classes include English and Arabic, Mandarin or Vietnamese.
